Re-use some of the FY23 data in the FY 24 Academic Libraries Chapter

AASA-PT needs to make a recommendation to CoUL for how they use UCL stats in the Academic Libraries chapter this year.

  • Recommendation: CoUL temporarily (this year only) reuse last year's (FY23) data related to eResources in the Academic Libraries chapter of the 2025-26 Regents Budget Detail. Two data points in this chapter will be affected: Average electronic holdings and Average ebooks on each campus

 

 

This approach is fine but we need to document why we chose this route.

Which is that we don’t have time to make quick decisions given the open issue with review of the reductions in this year’s data.

Along with the decision an email will need to be crafted to explain why this was recommended for this year and probably only this year.

 

The email will be drafted with chairs and Anna to be given to Danielle.

Electronic data re-run

Review the file

  • Review ReadMe and campus summary and breakdown tabs

  • Review above plan for longitudinal study of the data (top-level and more granular breakdown) for campuses

    1. Do campuses need another top-level snapshot (of total “available at” and “available for”) before sharing with campus colleagues

Daisy/Anna

In the Template tab nothing in the included columns have changed. Excluded has been further explained with much more detail.

For campus summary included titles are boxed in green.

Purchased items from Airiti, CNPeReading, and JSTOR DDA ("available for") are included - non-purchased candidate items are being excluded.

ReadMe includes the differences between report runs.

The findings provide justification for review file continuing. For the most part re-runs do not seem to be needed.

We could start building a data set to see trends in package, etc. but that would need to be done over time - the next 8-9 months.

Do we want to periodically update the query so in July we know what changes have been made over time, or do we want to keep it static and make changes in May and June?

CDL and local E-Resources should be managing decisions about resources - but should we do a study to see the impact of these choices so we are prepared for the numbers that come out in July?

 

 

 

If you want to submit the September numbers campuses should submit a non-ILS submission file in the non-ILS submission format.
